Bridal and Bridemaids Bouquets

 Bridal Bouquets

When selecting the size of your bridal bouquet, keep in mind the style of your dress. If your dress is simple, it is best to have a more simple bouquet to mirror the dress. If your dress has a lot of design, lace, and beading, a simple bouquet will not be able stand out next tothe design on the dress; therefore you will want a more elaborate bouquet. You will also want to add more color so that it will stand apart from the dress. Height also factors into the size of the bouquet. The shorter the bride, the smaller of bouquet she should carry, and vice versa. A florist will ask you for any details that you would like to include within your bouquet. Keep in mind, your bouquet should be the most beautiful arrangement.

Bridesmaid Bouquets

Bridesmaid bouquets should be a small reflection of an element from within the bridal bouquet (color, shape, or type of flower). The bouquet should also compliment the color of the bridesmaid dresses. The easiest way to coordinate colors is to provide your florist a swatch of the dress color. Typically, bridesmaid bouquets look similar, but you can switch it up by having different types of flowers in similar colors. You can also have the maid of honor’s bouquet be a little more elaborate than the others.
